Today Farsight Security, Inc. announced its Silver Sponsorship at Anomali Detect 2016, which will feature educational training, speaking sessions, customer presentations and networking around threat intelligence from September 11-13, 2016 in Washington D.C. Farsight will be demonstrating its latest Passive DNS solutions at the event.

Farsight Security delivers the world’s largest real-time actionable threat intelligence information on how the Internet is changing and how it’s being used, seeing more than 200,000 DNS-related observations per second. Security analysts around the globe use this information to provide critical context to existing threat data to increase detection and mitigation of today’s Internet security threats.

Recognizing the value threat intelligence sharing and collaboration plays in increasing the speed and accuracy in detecting cyberattacks, Farsight Security offers its Passive DNS data as part of the Anomali Alliance Preferred Partner (APP) Store, a marketplace for premium threat intelligence. When Anomali Threatstream 6.0 platform users identify a potential malicious IP address or domain name, they can – with a click of a button -- purchase access to Farsight’s Passive DNS data to quickly investigate these digital artifacts to advance their investigations.

“Farsight is pleased to be a sponsor at this inaugural threat intelligence event. Increasingly, SOC analysts, hunt teams, and incident responders are using Passive DNS to enrich their existing threat data to uncover new threats to their organizations. Using Passive DNS, security practitioners can take a single suspicious IP address or domain name and uncover an entire ‘neighborhood’ of bad actors, which can provide critical information including their motives, timeline, and lateral movement,” said Andrew Lewman, Chief Revenue Officer for Farsight Security, Inc.

Every day, hundreds of security, incident response, SOC and research teams use Farsight’s Passive DNS to:

Accelerate incident research and post‑breach analysis.

Discover associations among threat actors and track and block their activity.

Perform fact-based risk assessment of domain names and IP addresses.

Uncover all domains using the same name server infrastructure used by a “known bad” domain.

Reveal the IPs an adversary is using to conceal malicious activity and avoid takedowns.

Conduct third-party audits of DNS configurations.
